Katujahti 2.1 opens the map: streets are now playable in 41 European countries besides Finland, and the new Tailwind challenge adds an optional game within your walk.

ALL OF EUROPE

Play across Europe.

Streets are playable in 41 European countries, from Iceland to Cyprus. Municipality search works across Europe without a network connection, and the map goes from municipality to country, Europe and the whole world.

The app is downloaded from the Finnish App Store and Google Play, and the game works abroad too.

Tailwind, a challenge within your walk.

An optional walking challenge: walk a stage within the given time, keep your streak going and raise your multiplier. New streets earn a bonus, and a route suggestion appears on the map.

Shared World covers every country.

The community map now shows in which countries and municipalities people have walked. Taking part is optional, as always.

New statistics and share images.

Statistics by period, history as a list, calendar or map, and drill-downs from a municipality to its areas and streets. Share images come in two sizes, and the app now speaks German and French too.

More accurate and more stable.

Gaps at junctions are filled, a footpath next to a big road is recognised, and more GPS points are accepted. Long walks, switching municipality and restoring an interrupted walk are more reliable.

See the changes in the guide

Katujahti 2.0 brought Side Paths, 50 achievement types and the file backup in September. Version 2.1 reaches the app stores in stages during October 2026.

FINLAND AND EUROPE ARE THE PLAYING FIELD

Your phone may back up game data and GPS routes to iCloud or Google, depending on your settings. You can change this in your phone settings. A full file backup you create also contains your routes. You always see share images before sharing them.

THE KATUJAHTI STORY

From a family game to streets across Finland.

Katujahti started with Johanna’s idea and the family’s walks. With help from testers, it grew into a game for all of Finland.

  1. The first streetsJuly 2026

    What if we walked them all?

    Johanna read in Helsingin Sanomat that Pentti Arajärvi had walked every street in Helsinki. She discussed the idea with her husband Jussi, and it became a walking game for the family. Katujahti marked the streets they had walked on a map, making it easy to choose new ones for the next walk.

  2. All of Finland28 July 2026

    From home streets to 308 municipalities.

    The game grew to cover Finland. Over 224,000 streets, local areas and three languages. Downloaded streets could be collected offline too.

  3. Built with testersAugust 2026

    Into the pocket and out for a walk.

    The iPhone and Android apps went on real walks. Testers helped improve street detection, background recording and the map before the store release.

  4. The first 1.0 release26 Aug and 1 Sep 2026

    Katujahti opens to everyone.

    The iPhone app reached the App Store on 26 August and Android reached Google Play on 1 September. Free to play, no ads and no account needed to explore.

  5. 1.1.0September 2026

    My Finland and a walking view of your own.
